I did like the article even though the title was a little leading. I think that article was aimed toward publishers more than writers.. and the author makes the point that the solidarity of belonging to a house is enviable. So it is also a sell job to writers.

If I were ever fortunate enough to have the chance to be represented by a house I would take it.

Nice link.. thanks.
